Pro 2019 `v12.4.0`  
Mobile Android app: `v9.2.0.1709`  
Web app: `v1.11.20`

As seen with meter\_power values, which can get huge with solar inverters and utility meters, I noticed this odd phenomenon:

Mobile app:  
9883 `kWh` is shown on the device tile as 9.88 `kkWh` (kilokiloWatt hour),  
which should be 9.883 `MWh` (MegaWatt hour) with three digits:

Web app:

The number 9883.73 + unit `kWh` is correct in theory, but shouldn’t it read 9.883 `MWh` as well?

Nice catch.  
The value should obviously expressed in Wh  
preceded by a k or M for larger numbers.

Let me guess: a programmer discovered he could not implement M instead of k so he chose the least bad option. Athom or app dev to fix

Thanks! Curious what would happen with a value of 1000 `MWh`; Will it become 1 `kkkWh`? 🤪  
But it’s the same bug with different apps, and I think Homey handles the “auto”-unit picking.  
I say it’s a to-be-fixed-by-Athom ☺😬
